CSV Import
Illegal characters that Microsoft Excel recognizes as dates:- / , (dash, forward slash and comma)
Other illegal characters:. \ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) { } [ ] < >
Problems sometime arise when importing CSV files from spreadsheets. Some spreadsheets will truncate unused commas in order to save on file size. if you have several zones that do not have any Preset values, the spreadsheets may truncate these commas. This will cause an error on Import to Light Manager. The error will look similar to the following screen.

You can see the truncation between zones 8 and 9, and continuing through the remainder of the file. The following is a Microsoft explanation:

SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Excel, if you save a file in the test or the CSV (comma separated value) format, Microsoft Excel places tabs or commas between each columnof the worksheet. However, certain text files may be saved with a different number of tabs or commas in 16-row blocks.

CAUSE
This behavior occurs only if the cells in the last column contain no information.

WORKAROUND
To ensure that Microsoft Excel saves tabs or comma delimiters for all empty columns, verify that the last column in the file contains some data in at leastevery 16 rows throughout the file. If the blocks of rows do not contain data, add spaces or other characters in every 16 rows to the cells in the last column,or reorder the columns in the worksheet so that the last column on the worksheet always contains information.

This problem can be solved by adding a dummy Preset at the end of the CSV file and then fill the column with zeros. This will force the spreadsheet to fill out the commas. Once the CSV file is imported into Light Manager, the dummy Preset can be deleted.
